and will lose elasticity (i.e., it will stand out as if it were pinched).

We have been treating one of our females for dehydration with a few different methods which have worked wonders for us. First off we have been bathing her twice a day for about 30 minutes at a time, the other thing (which was recomended by our wonderful vet) was to force feed her 8 ml of Pedia-lite and 2ml of Echinachea (spelling?) once a day... Three days on Echinachea and four days without the echinachea in the solution. It took her a while to get us to the tube being shoved down her throat but it seems to have really really helped her out soo it something cheap and easy to try before a trip to the vet. Hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Rose Hipskind
